I draw straight-to-pen portraits (sometimes), take relatively decent photos (sometimes), and make coffee (all the time).

Slow runner. 1x marathoner. 1x triathlete. 🌈

Yesterday, emotions won. I let myself get swallowed up by the bed the whole day.

Woke up today with back pain worse than post-triathlon/marathon body aches. I knew it'll only get worse if I don't move. The walk and stretches did me wonders — physically, mentally, emotionally.

Life update:

Finished the 5150 triathlon!

Most anxious about making the swim cutoff since I only banked 15 pool sessions & 2 ows, but I made it. Finished ahead of my bike time goal. Felt strong on the run. Ugly-cried at the finish.

19 weeks of training & grit got me through. Ironman 70.3 next?

Zone 2, baby!

I've been wondering why I feel so tired with my training compared to my first sprint tri training. Realized, I'm doing an olympic-distance this time & training schedule from before were NOTHING compared to this.

What more for an Ironman training?!

Even the car air-conditioning didn't stand a chance against this heat today while I was out.

I expected for Iceland's weather to be unpredictable, but not THAT crazy.

Managed to sneak in a quick 5k once the sun was out but not even halfway through, it started raining, then sleet with strong winds.

But man, the view gorgeous!

After more than a day of travelling, finally landed in this magical, out-of-this-world place — #Iceland.

Cannot wait to explore you!

A little throwback to when I dabbled into digital art.

Now I don't even know how to navigate the program. 🤭

There are good run days, there are bad run days — today was the latter.

What was supposed to be a 1.5hr-run was cut in half 'coz my body wasn't feeling it.

Maybe 'coz it's that time of the month, or the heat. But at least I got a bit of run in?

Closing training week 2 with a swim (finally started swim training!) and an #lsd run.

Still very much a #slowrunner but this is the first one in a long time where my heart just kept steady at Z2 without having to stop/walk!

I'm taking that as win to start the weekend right!

Week 1 ✅

Didn't think I'd be able to honestly finish the week because legs have been sore since Friday, but your body sometimes surprises you.

Also aiming to do more strength workouts next week alongside the training plan. Let's see!

Wk1D1 ✅

I definitely won't be posting regularly about training but I do want to mark today as it is Day 1!

After a week of no exercise at all, easy felt a whole lot harder this time.

Nephew killed on the bike! Advanced #duathlon for his age group — 3km bike-800m run.

Bestie slid through that finish chute EFFORTLESSLY for her first #multisport — inverse dua — 5km run-40km bike-10km run.

Both registering just two weeks before literally meant 2 weeks of training as well!

Aaah! Booked it, finally! I have accommodations booked since December but have been neglecting to book the most important thing. 😝

Next up, figure out how to schedule my #triathlon training into the trip — if at all possible.

Anybody here from #Iceland?

First 10k of 2025. Hoping for longer distances, faster pace in the near future!

Even a run couldn't pull me out of this funk.

It's been tightening its hold on me even more, it seems.

Time for the monthly steroid shot for my knee scar. It'll be so sore the next few days but at least it isn't as bad as before.

It's been a year since this injury & only the shots I started in June helped with its chronic pain and sensitivity.

Apparently, since I'm the one who made her sign up for the #duathlon, I'm now doing the same training since I have yet to start for my #triathlon training.

First #bricksession in almost a year!

January hasn't been too good. Too many tears shed, a brain scattered in all directions, & just physically exhausted.

Thankful for the distraction. It's the running, cycling & working out that clear my head.

3 more weeks of base training before the triathlon training proper.

A full-page #sadiesink during a flight home from DXB last August. Still intent on filling this 2020 sketchbook this year. 😝

Just a few of my favorite places I've been to so far. Thankful that I was able to get decent shots despite the hustle and bustle of tourists.

Excited for the upcoming one and hoping to get more photos to add to this collection.

Bike fitting for baby aerobars. After months of not riding, back on the saddle tomorrow. #triathlon

A cute, new coffee nook that offers that elusive flat white (and it's really good, too)

Just a quick doodle of the talented #ayoedebiri done a few months back while in Dubai.

Let's see if I can finally fill this notebook this 2025!
